Where Shall I Wander
by John Ashbery
You meant more than life to me. I livedthrough you not knowing, not knowing Iwas living.I learned that you called for me. I came to where you were living, up a stair. There was no one there.No one to appreciate me. The legality of itupset a chair. Many times to celebratewe were called together and wherewe had been there was nothing there,nothing that is anywhere. We passed obliquely,leaving no stare. When the sun was done muttering,in an optimistic way, it was time to leave that there.-- from "The New Higher"
